Dynamic Web Project option missing in Eclipse Kepler

Question

The "Dynamic Web Project" option for a new project in Eclipse does not showing up in the list.
Although the "web" folder showing up with option "static web project" but there is no option for "Dynamic Web project".
I have already installed Web, XML, Java EE plugin.
I am using Eclipse Kepler realease-2.

I had the same problem and did this:

Click "Help" > "Install new software"
In "Work with", paste: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/kepler
In "Web, XML, Java EE and OSGi Enterprise Development", check:
1. Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
2. Eclipse Java Web Developer Tools
3. Eclipse Web Developer Tools
4. Eclipse XML Editors and Tools

Finally, click "Next" to install the new software and "Dynamic Web Project" will be available.

Installed all four with success. But still no luck with the "Dynamic Web Project". Still Unavailable. On Eclipse Mars.1 Release 4.5.1 – Abhishek Saini Oct 29 '15 at 10:37
I've tried this solution but it was not enough. For me, what worked was the instruction given by Ankit: In Market Place, search for 'Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools'" and selected all the plugins listed above. Worked for Eclipse Orion Version. – Daniel Santana Nov 20 '18 at 17:01
Note that in newer versions of Eclipse they no longer have project names. For me I had to add the following URL: https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2021-12/ (my version is 2021-12). You can find your version by clicking `Help -> About Eclipse`. – BugHunterUK Feb 15 '22 at 12:44

Step 1: Click on Help and then click on “Install New Software”.

Step 2: In "Work with", paste this link: Mars- http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars

Step 3: Scroll down to find “Web, XML, Java EE and OSGI Enterprise Development” option and expand it.

Step 4: Select the following three options under “Web, XML, Java EE and OSGI Enterprise Development”

Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
Eclipse Java Web Developer Tools
Eclipse Web Developer Tools

Step 5: Click next and you should see that the software is installing. Wait for some time and then a popup would ask your permission to restart the Eclipse. Restart it and you should find the dynamic web project option under project list.

Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools
Eclipse Java Web Developer Tools
Eclipse Web Developer Tools
Eclipse XML Editors and Tools

These need to be installed.

Now if in your new project you don't get Dynamic Web Project, select a new Project. In that you can go to Web-> Dynamic Web Project.

I don't know when this started, but in Mars.2 I found it here.

worked for me. I searched for 'Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools' in eclipse market place and selected all the plugins listed above. I am using eclipse luna. – Ankit Jan 12 '17 at 08:08
Does this same for eclipse neon? – chamzz.dot Apr 02 '18 at 06:03
Why don't you try it... I'm sure it must be the same since oxygen works similarly – Kushan Apr 02 '18 at 07:19

Downloaded the 4 files in Eclipse Kepler 4.3, and options for both Dynamic and Static Web project are now available. Can also create HTML5, JS, CSS files for a Hybrid Android application.

In Work with paste this link: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/Kepler Change the link according to your Eclipse version, for example for the Eclipse 2020-03 the link would be http://download.eclipse.org/releases/2020-03
Scroll down to find “Web, XML, Java EE and OSGI Enterprise Development” option and expand it.

4.Select the following three options under “Web, XML, Java EE and OSGI Enterprise Development”

-Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools

-Eclipse Java Web Developer Tools

Click next and you would see that the software are installing. Wait for some time and then a popup would ask your permission to restart the Eclipse. Restart it and you would find the dynamic web project option under project list.

Which "Java EE" plug-in do you mean? That wizard requires that the Java EE Developer Tools feature be installed, and you be running with at least Java 6.

actually, you just need to check the check box for generating the web xml, see here Eclipse Kepler not generating web.xml automatically
